Sharon Stone was ahead of her time with that Barbie movie pitch in the 90s! Props to her for pushing the boundaries!

Well, the harrowing thing is that the veteran actress did pitch a Barbie movie way back in the 1990s but no one took her seriously. Known for starring in seductive roles, people thought that a Barbie movie would be a failure!
Sharon Stone Was Laughed Out of the Studio!
Back in the 90s, the Basic Instinct star had proposed a Barbie movie to a studio. The actress revealed that she was laughed out of the studio even though the head of Barbie had her back. As per the tweet, here’s what Sharon Stone faced back in the 90s,
“I was laughed out of the studio when I came up with the Barbie idea in the 90s with the support of the head of Barbie. How far we’ve come thank you ladies for your courage and endurance”
Well, it would have truly been a different world if Sharon Stone had starred in the role of Barbie in a 90s movie. The actress was last seen in Rita Ora’s music video You Only Love Me and is associated with an upcoming project titled What About Love.
